Hi There, First of all. A great Add-in! Here’s my question: Since i’ve upgraded the lightsout add-in from version 7.1.70 to the latest (7.5) my Event Viewer logs every 15 seconds the following message:
Source: LoService
EventID: 222
Description: Exception in CheckClients(): Name cannot begin with the ”’ character, hexadecimal value 0×27. Line 1, position 175.
If I stop the Lights Out Service then the messages stop. This is not good. Any idea?
kind regards
Robert
